Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Scene to scene, encounter to encounter, its tension builds unrelentingly. So, fasten your seat belts. It`s a blast.

[Aliens] is a spectacular example of state-of-the-art science fiction simply because it never tries to be overtly spectacular.

It's blaster action, not Gothic future-horror. Fortunately, director-screenwriter James Cameron has shaped his film around the defiant intelligence and sensual athleticism of Weaver, and that's where Aliens works best.

fresh:
This film is also the best monster movie of the year and the best picture of any kind to open so far this summer. Put it another way: Aliens is the Jaws of the '80s.

Action thrillers assail but rarely test us; this is the tautest, most provoking, and altogether most draining example ever made.
